"I love you guys so much. Larry set an amazing example for Gianna to grow into a wonderful person, and walked along side Karen while doing so. He showed Gianna the standard of what a husband should look like . He loved and cared for Karen, and Gianna learned by example how she should be treated, by her future husband ( Matt). Larry was the funniest person with his jokes and pranks. He was the Vitamin guru, and an amazing person. Earth is just a stop on our journey home. THIS ISN'T HOME. God has an amazing heavenly home for whoever accepts him. We will see Larry again when it?s our turn to go home. He will be missed in the meantime but to mourn him being gone forever is inaccurate because we will see him again and I praise God for that. He?s getting the mansion all decorated as we speak making a pink room with vanilla and cupcake scent candles for gianna and aligning Karen?s nutcrackers in her room. He?s our angel, and watching over us. There?s no better place then heaven. Heaven is so great the human mind is incapable of comprehending it, and it?s so amazing to know Larry gets to be before God. It doesn?t get better than that. Mr. beretta, I?ll miss you dearly, but Jesus says he is coming soon. Soon I will see you again, and I?m sure there is a prank waiting for me. I love you and I love you Gianna and Karen. I?m here for you guys, and I pray you find peace in knowing that Larry is with God. ??"
